Espace VERRE’s virtual auction is closed. Thank you for your support!
A huge thank you goes out to everyone who participated in this wonderful adventure! Thanks to your bids, shares, and donations, we raised valuable funds to support the establishment of artist residencies—a project particularly close to our hearts. These residencies will provide glass artists with a setting to create, explore, and experiment. We also extend our sincere thanks to the artists who made this auction possible. Their talent and commitment are a testimony that glass is a vibrant and contemporary practice.

Espace VERRE’s second virtual auction took place from April 14 to April 27 . The auction featured around twenty exclusive lots, including exceptional works by both established and emerging Québec glass artists such as Michèle Lapointe, Élisabeth Marier, Catherine Benoit, Charlie Larouche-Potvin, and Dorothée Bouliane. You also had the opportunity to bid on hands-on studio experiences in Montréal and Québec City. All auction items will were exhibited in Espace VERRE’s boutique for the duration of the event.
For 40 years, Espace VERRE has been a unique hub for research, education, and the promotion of glass art in Québec. This year, the funds raised will go toward establishing artist residencies—an essential initiative to support creation and provide a space for experimentation and production for glass artists from here and abroad.
